A week’s volunteering

Program: Volunteer as an English Teacher at our NGO for Poor Children

I volunteered here for a week back in April while travelling. It was one of the most rewarding things I did on my whole trip, and I wish I could’ve stayed longer! The kids are an absolute joy and Kim and Jack are just amazing people. I have recommended NDOCCC to multiple people since going who have gone on to volunteer here, and am continuing to recommend it to anyone travelling in the area. Lots of love.

A real difference to children’s lives

Excellent NGO ran by incredible teachers, doing amazing work for children. If you’re looking to make a real impact during your volunteering, this is the place. You will be instructed on how to teach the curriculum and supported through the process, surrounded by children who can’t wait to play and learn from you. You will be included in group activities with other volunteers to get to know each other, and treated as one of the family. Kim’s story and sacrifice for his work is incredibly honourable, and you couldn’t be in better hands.

I had an amazing time volunteering for Kimlean and his school. I met he because he was the tuk tuk driver for my visits to the temples. ?He told me about the school and we head out there the next day. Its really fun helping out in the classroom with the kids, eating good food, and also played a little football in the field. thanks Kimlean! You're doing a great thing.

Such a heart-warming experience, that will stay with me forever. The sweetest kids, that deserve the world. I was only able to volunteer for a few days but those were the best days of my trip and I intend to return some day. Recommend to anyone visiting Cambodia and wanting to make a difference.

The children were so welcoming, respectful, happy and excited to learn. Kim, the director of the school is the most selfless person who puts everything into the school and the children. Tours can also be provided through their Tuk Tuk drivers which I would also highly recommend. If you have the chance to volunteer I would really encourage you to go.

Constant smiles ??

I spent couple of weeks volunteering at the school. Everyone is so welcoming and the kids fill your heart with love. I would highly recommend spending some time at the school. This project ran by Kim is changing so many lives for better by making sure kids have education and will be able to get employment once they grow up. Just beautiful! It has been a pleasure to be a part of it. Miss you all guys and I will definitely be back at some point in my life!

This volunteer program in Siem Reap offers a meaningful way to give back by teaching English to underprivileged children. The experience is well-organized, with the added benefit of affordable tours and transportation services provided by the school’s principal, supporting the school directly. A great opportunity to make an impact while exploring the beauty of Cambodia!

Please do this!!

I spent a week volunteering at NDCCO and it was an incredibly fulfilling experience. I immediately felt comfortable with Kim, the other teachers and volunteers, and the children are impossible not to love. NDCCO goes beyond education - it supports both the students and their families, fostering a strong, caring community. It's amazing to see the difference this school makes in the lives of its students. I highly recommend volunteering here to anyone who wants to make a meaningful impact and create memories that will last a lifetime.

Volunteering at New Dream Cambodian Children Organization (NDCCO) for 9 Months: A Life-Changing Experience

Volunteering at NDCCO for nine months has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. From the moment I arrived, I felt like part of the community. The children’s eagerness to learn and their infectious enthusiasm made every day a joy. I had the privilege of teaching English, which not only helped the students improve their language skills but also empowered them to communicate with the wider world, opening doors to better opportunities for their future. Beyond the classroom, NDCCO offers a holistic approach, focusing on the well-being of the students and their families. It’s inspiring to witness the impact the school has on the local community. Through education, extracurricular activities, and support programs, NDCCO strengthens the bond between families and the school, creating a supportive environment where everyone thrives. Volunteering here gave me a deep sense of purpose. Seeing the students grow academically, socially, and emotionally, knowing that I played a small part in their development, was truly heartwarming. The smiles on their faces, their curious questions, and their excitement to learn made every challenge worthwhile. I highly recommend volunteering at NDCCO to anyone looking to make a real difference. It’s more than just a school – it’s a community where education is changing lives for the better.
